Hi @Riccardo_Marchi

Show us some work please. This is a help forum to ask for help with things that you cannot figure out on your own, but actually tried. Read this how to ask help How to get help on the Dynamo forums

How can I read the names of the layers? And How can I change/customize them?

Hi @Kulkul

We are trying something similar, need to add 5cm to several walls types. With the FamilyType.CompoundStructureLayer node we can get width and layers, but we don’t know how to modify those values.

We just need one of the options, both works for us:

  • add 5cm to the width of the existing layer
  • add a new layer with 5cm width

We got some info from @Andreas_Dieckmann on these posts, but didn’t get any light on this.
